Tenant Says Landlord’s Father Was Buried Beneath His Sitting Room for Over a Year

A Nigerian tenant says he was shocked to learn that his landlord’s late father had been buried beneath the sitting room of the apartment he rented. He said the landlord’s family arrived on September 20, 2026, to exhume and relocate the remains. According to him, he had lived in the new building for more than a year and had no idea a burial had taken place inside the room. The family reportedly said they would repair the sitting room after the exhumation. The incident has raised questions about what tenants should be told about a property’s history before moving in.
